CNX 142 - Border Crossings

Description
The social world is shaped in many ways by borders or boundaries between (seemingly) different states of being. While borders may seem hard and fast, they are often porous. People relate to borders in different ways. Some cross over borders easily, others circulate back and forth, and others still remain someplace in between. This course examines varieties of border crossing including international border crossing, religious (de)conversion, and gender fluidity and investigates the forces that shape the ways in which individuals experience these and other borders.
